科目:高中英语 来源:2016-2017学年湖北襄阳市四校高二上期中联考英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
Mexico City sits on an inland plateau(高原) surrounded by volcanic peaks, which makes air quality a constant concern for people who live here.
In April, the country took a decisive step toward improving air quality by enacting(颁布) a temporary ban(禁令) on private and federal vehicles in the city. The rule forbids people from driving in the city one day each week and one Saturday each month. Electric vehicles, government service vehicles, public transport options and school buses are not included in the ban.
Mexico City isn’t the first urban centre to be involved in car-free living. But the ban is more than an awareness-raiser; it was enacted with the direct aim of solving air pollution. In March, the city sank into a deep brown haze of smog when pollution levels passed the 200 mark. The city ordered some 1.1m of the area’s 4.7m cars off the streets and also offered free bus and subway rides.
Mexico City’s temporary vehicle ban raises questions about the best ways to improve urban air quality. India, whose citizens breathe some of the world’s dirtiest air, has tried a variety of solutions. Earlier this year, the Indian government started a 4% sales tax on new-car purchases.
Beijing also has experience with cleaning the air. The city introduced alternate-day rules in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games, which produced good, if short-lived, results. The day after the vehicle-use restrictions (限制) were lifted, the blue faded back to gray. And then there is the London congestion(拥挤) charge, introduced in 2003. The charge has had a measurable effect on air quality.
For now, Mexico City—named by the United Nations as the most polluted city on the planet in 1992—can look forward to the start of the region’s rainy season, when daily showers will help to clean the air.
1.What makes the air quality of Mexico City a concern for citizens?
A. Its population.
B. Its location.
C. Its public transportation.
D. Its government action.
2.Which is true about the rule enacted in April in Mexico City?
A. It will come into effect forever.
B. Federal vehicles are not included in the ban.
C. The rule prevents people from driving on Saturdays each month.
D. It’s a decisive measure toward reducing air pollution.
3.What can we learn from the passage?
A. Two more places are mentioned which dealt with air pollution besides Mexico City.
B. The Indian government started a 47% sales tax on new-car purchases in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games.
C. The action Beijing took has got good results for a very long time.
D. As for Mexico City, rainy season can help to improve the air quality.
4.Which word has the closest meaning to the underlined word “lifted”?
A. removedB. raisedC. approvedD. clarified

Being a good friend isn’t always easy, but taking the time to develop a lasting friendship is worth the effort. As the years pass, you will realize that each friendship you keep is priceless. 1.To be a good friend and deepen a friendship, just follow these steps.
Keep your promises.
Don’t ever make a promise that you can’t keep. If you say you’ll hang out with a friend and an unexpected situation arises, explain the situation. Give your friend a gift and tell him or her you are sorry. Nobody is perfect, and it’s okay if you break a promise once in a blue moon. 2.__
Apologize when you’ve made a mistake.
3. Though your friend won’t be happy that you made a mistake, he or she will be very pleased that you admit it instead of just pretending that nothing is wrong.

Give your friend some space when he or she needs it.
Part of being supportive means supporting the fact that your friend won’t always want to spend time with you. Learn to step back and give your friend space. 5. ___ Don’t be jealous (嫉妒的) if your friend has lots of other friends.
